XBMC is now available for R6 and it's built with VDPAU support. Enter the following as root in a terminal window to install.

Code:

pacman -Syupacman -S xbmc

As your mythtv user, enter the following to run XBMC in full screen mode.

Code:

xbmc -fs

You will need to configure XBMC via the settings menu option. Make sure you select VDPAU as your render setting if you want hardware acceleration.

Default support for common remotes (StreamZap and MCE) is available.

For MythTV integration, there is an interesting python plug-in called MythBox. It's a MythTV frontend for XBMC, but it's still in beta. It works for me, but is prone to crashing. You might want to give it a try.

I swear I did the pacman -Syu several times last night but had no success when I typed in the URL for core-testing and extra-testing last night the listing showed xbmc-svn-20231-3 and pacman was looking for '20231-2.
